《說書 THE BARD》
其實這個系列是以類似章回小說的形式創作的，
如果懶得看文字、或者對故事發展有那麼一點點興趣的話，歡迎來聽我說書~
I'll become a storyteller and play the role of the original recorder who began an imaginary journey of reality
then came out with these chapter-novel-like documents. Here I will try to tell thoroughly how the journey
goes on and reveal more details beneath the surface of scribbling lines and wracked paper...

餞別與里程碑 / Farewell & Milestone

這趟旅程一路走來，感激貴人相助，百工的足跡踏過台北、高雄、台南、台中，
那位可愛的了老先生並漂洋過海去了北京，唯一個遺憾恐怕是來不及為他餞別。

如今，很榮幸《歌百工》創作的肇始人、邋遢如我的森林之子也將正式成為被
國美館青年藝術典藏的一員。
芸芸眾生萍水相逢，然後離別而重新踏上各自的應許之路。

人生如戲、戲如人生。Bon voyage, viva la vida!

Along the journey I'd be so grateful for all the elegant aids from all of you, that guide me
through Taipei, Kaohsiung, Tainan, and Taichung. The lovely elder's already travelled
farther, and I'm terribly sorry to have not even a farewell with him before his way
overseas to Beijing.

Now, it's also of a great honor to see this buddy from my very beginning: the son of the forest
with appearance as sloppy as me, to officially become a member of the young artist collection
in NTMFA.
We all human beings meet by chance, then eventually separate with various destiny to achieve.

Life is like a play, and vice versa. Bon voyage, viva la vida!

其實我很好奇大家以什麼方式觀看我的作品，
不過、其實我是以類似於「章回小說」的方式進行創作，
也就是說，旅途、人事物、劇情是在微微推演的。

人事物可能會重複出現，因為我希望創作跟真實的生活一樣，
然後這趟旅途中的重要角色將會陸續出場...:)

AAMOF, I'm kinda curious about the ways viewers see my works.
Here, I would rather reveal that they're brought out with a Chinese "chapter-novel" form,
namely, the journey, anyone/anything, and the story keep on developing to establish the whole imaginary world.

Someone and something are gonna get mentioned repeatedly, just like my life in reality.
And most of all, key figures of the journey will show out soon in the coming future...:)

憶起自己一位兒時就被迫分離、印象模糊而放逐在異地的白化症哥哥，

主角毅然踏上了凜冽的北國之旅。在世界盡頭的冰雪之地，

卻沒想到過往被家族壓抑與塵封的回憶瘡疤被揭開，

衝突、矛盾、以及來不及說出口的話，在虛假的旭日升起時一觸即發……

謹獻給T、與那場永凍的四月雪。

Dedicate to T, and the ever-frozen snowfall in April.

探索嶄新而未知的新世界，本身就是個充滿矛盾、衝突與啟發的成長之旅。

在理哲昌盛的國度、宗教神魔崇拜被捐棄，但偶然邂逅的一位其貌不揚的長者，

用癡狂的執著尖銳卻慈悲地挑戰了信仰、挑戰了神性與人性的拉扯、

以及人之為善惡賢庸的模糊界限……

SAFARI II (第二段長征)

出乎預料，
小品雅集已經在四月份搬家了，遷到幾條街外的巷子裡。
空間變得更寬敞舒適，但也格外陌生...

Surprisingly 小品雅集 has moved in April to a new place, few blocks away from the original location.
The store gets much bigger, along wtih a really fancy atmosphere.
However, kind of unfamiliar to me now...

關於師大夜市：舊調重彈，竟成新曲/About the Shida Nightmarket: old tune turns hit

Bon Appetit la Shida! 師大上菜！ (rough cut version) from CC Chang on Vimeo.

2009年底，為了一個課堂其中作業而拍攝了這支實驗性質、結合了錄像與行為的短片，
目的在於以一個師大學生身兼當地居民的角色，
來看待師大夜市這個當時正蓬勃發展的聚落中，人與環境微妙的互動關係。

手機OS挺有藝思/Arts (out) of Smart Phone OSs

最近因故有換手機的機會而開始研究smart phone的作業系統，有種感覺：
多數人藝術創作本質在追求如同iOS或Windows Phone，
而我覺得自己目前的創作心態比較趨向Android。

Recently I began to study up smart phone OSs, for a chance to probably replace my cellphone.
I get an idea out of the researches throughout these days:
Art creations out of the majority, of which the essence would be somehow similar to systems like iOS or Windows Phone,
on the contrary, mine inclines rather toward Android.
